With the steady increase in production of commercial vehicles in the past few years, is acting as the primary driving factor behind the rise of the HCV axles market. This can be attributed to the essentiality of axles in the weight bearing power transmission functions in the vehicles.

Diversity in Configurations and Housing to Help Sustain Growth in HCV Axles Market

Electrically powered vehicles are increasingly gaining higher levels of traction in the automotive market and as such, the number of commercial vehicles operating on electricity is also growing rapidly, with 1.5 million being sold in 2016 alone. Players are presently integrating the electrical energy power houses of heavy commercial vehicles directly to the axles to improve the efficient use of power output thus generated. With the increasing adoption of electric commercial vehicles e-HCV axles are also anticipated to see improved growth.

Demanding usage of HCV axles, including applications for rough terrain and higher weight loads have resulted in the dynamic load designs that allow improved weight bearing abilities without compromising on performance. Variations in chassis design has also pushed the HCV axles market into developing newer configurations that are flexible enough to handle a number of different applications with the appropriate housing options.

Meritor Inc. released their range of MTEC6 axles for trailers, which incorporated a single piece axle tube design with optimized wall thickness, and platinum shield coating to improve on durability, reduce weight and stress in comparison to other multi piece counterparts.

In addition, HCV axle manufacturers are also partnering with original equipment manufacturers to achieve better customization and to cut down on overhead costs.

China and US to Continue as Primary Producers in the HCV Axles Market

Both, the United States and China are anticipated to lead the heavy commercial vehicle axles market in the production aspect owing to the presence of numerous key market players in these regions, and lower component costs.

A recently growing automobile manufacturing industry in South America, particularly in Brazil and Mexico is expected to give players in the HCV axles market lucrative opportunities for growth. Also, recently implemented norms to increase axle loads for heavy commercial vehicles in India is also anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for players in the HCV axles market in the country.

On the other hand, the recently increased trade tensions between China and the United States is anticipated to act as a major constraint for the growth of the global HCV axles market by restricted import and export activities.

Categorization of the Global HCV Axles Market

HCV axles can be largely categorized on the basis of weight carrying capacity, sales channel, type of heavy commercial vehicle, and product type. On the terms of weight carrying capacity, HCV axles can be divided into more than 14 tons, 8-14 tons, and less than 8 tons. On the basis of sales channel, HCV axles can be segregated into aftermarket sales and OEMs. On the basis of HCV type, HCV axles can be divided into Semi trailers, straight trucks, fire trucks, dump trucks, buses, and others. On the terms of product type, HCV axles can be divided into Stub, rear wheel, front wheel, lift, and tandem axles.
